The provlem is you're probably somewhere between 35 and 50, why are you still bothered by this behavior? Either deal with him or keep it shit and do t let it bother you; frankly you do sound pathetic with the kind of criticism you're launching in this anon forum.

I would like to know this too!

In our club, it's typically been over the summer (late June/July) when summer training schedule is posted, uniforms need to be ordered and team fees need to be collected. You can also ask the team manager.

In that case how/when does one volunteer to become a team manager or tournament cord. or any of the other parent volunteer responsibilities? Is that also in the late june/july time frame?

That depends on the club. I was the manager for our team this past year. I added the new players to TeamSnap in the early part of June, and almost immediately asked to see if one of the parents (old or new) wanted to manage the uniform ordering process for the team. At that point there was communication with the coach and our summer schedule was entered into teamsnap.

If you are joining an established team, it is likely (but not certain) that the team will have an existing manager who will likely be reaching out to you soon. An email to that person (or the coach if they dont reach out soon) letting them know that you are interested in volunteering is always well received. I can't imagine turning down anyone who wants to help!

Thanks for the info. This is for a U9 team so I don't believe there is an existing manager just yet. I guess I'll wait until mid June or so to hear back...

Haha - be careful if you ask...you may end up being team manager!!

I'm actually considering being the team manager. Do you think its too much work or too time consuming? I actually enjoy going to practices and games and thought maybe since I'm involved anyways I might was well help out the team.

It would be great to hear from people who were/are team managers and see what they think?

Sure it is time consuming, but at the end of the day I was going to be at most practices and all of the games anyways. I got to spend even more time with my daughter which in my mind was a huge win.
